5 Table Clocks to Keep You on Time and on Target

Is it not fascinating to think that there seems to be a timer within us that resets at the turn of the year? The desire to eat healthier, spend wiser, and work harder just creeps into our collective consciousness. That ‘new year, new me’ mantra we regurgitate every January is as old as time itself. Now that 2025 is off and running, let us not allow that renewed enthusiasm to wither with the passing months. It is time to spruce up our workstation with these symbolic table clocks to inspire productivity and keep our progress in check.

HIGH JEWELLERY MYSTERY CLOCK BY CARTIER

Time is a peculiar thing that can feel both fleeting and infinite. The Mystery clock captures this idea to perfection. A creation that predates Cartier’s iconic timekeepers like the Tank and the Santos, the clock baffles the mind with its mechanism, especially the floating diamond hands. The high jewellery iteration of the clock adds a touch of whimsy, bringing diamonds, turquoise, lapis lazuli, and more into play.

ICE CUBE TABLE CLOCK BY CHOPARD

First spotted on a watch in 1999, the ice cube motif has become a staple in Chopard’s extensive catalogue. The Swiss luxury house is now taking us further into the Ice Age. Drawing from the Bauhaus movement’s principles, this table clock is the latest entry in the Ice Cube collection that puts a strict emphasis on simplicity and functionality. Its austere design is anchored by brushed yellow gold-toned mini cubes locked together like a flawless game of Tetris.

TRUNK TABLE CLOCK BY LOUIS VUITTON

The all-encompassing influence of the Louis Vuitton trunk can be seen in many of the house’s offerings, from fashion accessories to home objects. This table clock is another precious addition to its canon. The timepiece, tucked in a mini trunk swathed in Monogram Eclipse canvas, embodies the brand’s art of travel philosophy. Here, the concave sunray dial is dotted with Louis Vuitton flags and features a 24-hour display as well as a GMT indicator.

ORB BY MB&F

MB&F‘s Orb offers a modern, futuristic alternative for those seeking something ultra-modern. Boasting a curved aluminium dial under a domed mineral glass, the clock’s real allure lies in the elytra modelled after the beetle’s protective wing covers. The piece comes with a saucer that locks its position whether the wings are fully or partially closed. To enhance the visual impact, do away with the saucer by flexing the Orb’s four elytra.

ATMOS CLASSIQUE PHASES DE LUNE CLOCK BY JAEGER-LECOULTRE

There is no denying that the Atmos clock by Jaeger-LeCoultre is a technical marvel in every sense of the word. Its ability to function sans battery or standard watch mechanisms—the secret lies in the hermetically sealed capsule that converts ambient temperature into mechanical energy—is simply astounding. The Atmos Classique Phases de Lune echoes the same sentiment. What’s more, its exterior is as remarkable as its interior, especially with the pink gold-plated cabinet.
